Leading London firm Howard Kennedy is delighted to welcome Jeffrey Brown as a partner to the firm’s expanding Construction team, headed by James Stewart.

Jeffrey will enhance the firm’s expertise in arbitration and litigation in construction, engineering and energy.

Much of Jeffrey’s practice relates to the resolution of disputes by litigation, arbitration, adjudication and mediation. Jeffrey acts for both end users and contractors. An additional area of his expertise is liability insurance, and policy coverage. This will involve acting against insurers who dispute their liability to indemnify.

Jeffrey has been consistently recognised in a raft of legal publications including Chambers and Partners and the Legal 500, who have paid tribute to Jeffrey’s diligence, depth of knowledge and high level of expertise.
